WeChat channel plugin for Claude Code — pushes WeChat messages into a running Claude Code session via the Wisdom automation API.

WisdomChannel — WeChat Channel for Claude Code

A Claude Code channel plugin that pushes WeChat desktop messages into your running Claude Code session, and lets Claude reply back through the same chat — like the official Telegram, Discord, and iMessage channels.

It is the client side of the Wisdom WeChat automation service: Wisdom runs on the Windows host with WeChat desktop and exposes an HTTP + WebSocket API; this MCP server runs locally next to Claude Code and bridges the two.

Features

• Push every inbound WeChat message into the active Claude Code session
• Claude replies through the reply tool — answer goes back into WeChat
• Works for both private DMs and group chats (only forwards @you mentions in groups)
• Allowlist + admin trust levels (access.json)
• Tools: reply, list_contacts, list_conversations, get_messages, get_status, manage_access
• Talks to a remote Wisdom server over HTTP/WebSocket — Wisdom does not have to run on the same machine as Claude Code

Requirements

• Python 3.10+
• A running Wisdom server with WeChat desktop logged in (any reachable host)
• Claude Code CLI v2.1.80+

Install

pip install wisdom-channel

This installs the wisdom-channel console script. To develop from source instead:

git clone https://github.com/AceDataCloud/WisdomChannel.git
cd WisdomChannel
pip install -e .

Configure

Create the channel state directory and an .env pointing at your Wisdom server:

mkdir "$env:USERPROFILE\.claude\channels\wechat" -Force

@"
WISDOM_API_URL=http://your-wisdom-host:8000
WISDOM_API_TOKEN=
WECHAT_BOT_NAME=
"@ | Set-Content "$env:USERPROFILE\.claude\channels\wechat\.env"

Variable	Description
WISDOM_API_URL	URL of the Wisdom REST API (default http://localhost:8000)
WISDOM_API_TOKEN	Optional bearer token if Wisdom auth is enabled
WECHAT_BOT_NAME	Your WeChat display name (auto-detected if empty)

Optional access control at ~/.claude/channels/wechat/access.json:

{
  "policy": "allowlist",
  "allowFrom": ["Alice", "Work Group"],
  "admins": ["Alice"]
}

Policy	Behavior
all (default)	Forward every inbound message
allowlist	Forward only senders in allowFrom / admins
disabled	Drop everything

admins are fully trusted — Claude executes their requests without confirmation. allowFrom users get polite, read-only assistance.

Run

The repo ships an .mcp.json that registers the channel as wechat:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "wechat": {
      "command": "python",
      "args": ["-m", "wisdom_channel"],
      "cwd": "."
    }
  }
}

Launch Claude Code with the channel from the project root:

$env:ANTHROPIC_API_KEY = "sk-ant-..."

claude --dangerously-skip-permissions `
       --dangerously-load-development-channels server:wechat

Run it in a persistent, interactive terminal (a real TTY — e.g. an RDP session on the Wisdom host, tmux/screen, or a foreground terminal). Channels push inbound messages into a live Claude Code session, so the process must stay running and attached. Launched detached / without a TTY, Claude Code falls back to --print one-shot mode and exits immediately. --channels requires Claude Code v2.1.80+; the --dangerously-load-development-channels flag loads an unpublished (development) channel like this one.

What happens:

1. Claude Code reads .mcp.json and spawns python -m wisdom_channel over stdio
2. The channel loads ~/.claude/channels/wechat/.env and probes Wisdom at WISDOM_API_URL
3. It connects to Wisdom's WebSocket and forwards inbound WeChat messages as notifications/claude/channel
4. Claude calls the reply tool, which posts to Wisdom's /api/messages/send
5. Wisdom drives WeChat desktop and the message is delivered

Headless auto-reply (no Claude Code session)

The channel above needs a persistent interactive Claude Code session. For an unattended host (no live terminal), run the bridge instead:

wisdom-channel bridge            # optional: --model sonnet

It connects to the Wisdom WebSocket and, for each allowed inbound message, shells out to claude -p and posts the reply back through Wisdom — the same "WeChat in → Claude answers → WeChat out" loop, without a TTY. It honors the same access.json allowlist and group @-mention gating. Requires the claude CLI on PATH.

Standalone test

python -m wisdom_channel --test

Exercises Wisdom REST + WebSocket without launching Claude Code.
